使用HTTP的API写入数据
curl -i -XPOST 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=testdb' --data-binary 'cpu_load_short,host=server01,region=us-west value=0.64 1434055562000000000'

写入点时，必须指定现有的数据库。有关可用查询参数的完整列表，请参阅API参考文档。
使用HTTP的API请求写入多个点的数据
curl -i -XPOST 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=testdb' --data-binary 'cpu_load_short,host=server02 value=0.67
cpu_load_short,host=server02,region=us-west value=0.55 1422568543702900257
cpu_load_short,direction=in,host=server01,region=us-west value=2.0 1422568543702900257'
上面的语句是写入三个数据点如下：
[root@server81 ~]# curl -i -XPOST 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=testdb' --data-binary 'cpu_load_short,host=server02 value=0.67
> cpu_load_short,host=server02,region=us-west value=0.55 1422568543702900257

好了，从上面可以看出，新插入了三条数据，并且cpu_load_short表还自动增加了一个direction字段。
读取文件，然后使用HTTP的API来写入数据
有时候可以直接根据日志文件的数据，写入InfluxDB中。
cpu_load_short,host=server02 value=0.67
cpu_load_short,host=server02,region=us-west value=0.55 1422568543702900257
cpu_load_short,direction=in,host=server01,region=us-west value=2.0 1422568543702900257
**注意：**该文件内的格式应该遵循InfluxDB的行协议语法。
准备文件如下：
[root@server81 ~]# cat cpu_data.txt
cpu_load_short,host=server02 value=0.67
cpu_load_short,host=server02,region=us-west value=0.55 1422568543702900257
cpu_load_short,direction=in,host=server01,region=us-west value=2.0 1422568543702900257
[root@server81 ~]#
curl -i -XPOST 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=testdb' --data-binary @cpu_data.txt
执行如下：
## 查看文件内容数据
[root@server81 ~]# cat cpu_data.txt
cpu_load_short,host=server02 value=0.67
cpu_load_short,host=server02,region=us-west value=0.55 1422568543702900257
cpu_load_short,direction=in,host=server01,region=us-west value=2.0 1422568543702900257
[root@server81 ~]#
## 读取文件，然后使用API请求写入InfluxDB
[root@server81 ~]# curl -i -XPOST 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=testdb' --data-binary @cpu_data.txt

cpu_load_short,host=server02,region=us-west value=0.55 1422568543702900257可以看到这条数据在插入之前已经有了的。但是查询数据并没有重复插入，说明只要数据完全一致，并不会重复插入。

因为插入的数据中，只有这条cpu_load_short,host=server02 value=0.67 数据是没有时间戳的，所以可以插入。其他都不能重复插入。
无模式设计
InfluxDB是一个无模式数据库。您可以随时添加新的测量，标签和字段。请注意，如果您尝试使用与以前使用的类型不同的类型编写数据（例如，将字符串写入先前接受整数的字段），InfluxDB将拒绝这些数据。
HTTP响应摘要
错误响应的示例：
将浮点数据写入先前接受布尔值的字段：
curl -i -XPOST 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=testdb' --data-binary 'tobeornottobe booleanonly=true'
curl -i -XPOST 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=testdb' --data-binary 'tobeornottobe booleanonly=5'
执行如下：
## 首先写入新表tobeornottobe一个布尔值的字段，写入成功
